DETAILED DESCRIPTION

To make the above purposes, features and advantages of the present disclosure clearer and easily understood, the present disclosure will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementations. Obviously, the embodiments in the following description are merely illustrative ones, and are not all possible ones of the disclosure. All other embodiments obtained by those ordinarily skilled in the art based on the following ones without creative labor should also fall within the protection scope of the disclosure.

In the related art, the active layer of each amplifier transistor in the drive backplane is made of polysilicon, and is specifically manufactured as follows: an amorphous silicon layer is deposited and is then crystallized by Excimer Laser Annealing (ELA) to be converted into a polysilicon layer.

However, under the influence of crystallization equipment, processes and other factors, the degree of crystallization of the active layers in the amplifier transistors of the drive backplane is non-uniform when the active layers are crystallized by laser annealing, which makes the carrier mobility of the amplifier transistors non-uniform, so the signal gains of the amplifier transistors are different, that is, the uniformity of the signal gains of the amplifier transistors in the drive backplane is unsatisfying, and consequentially, the intensities of electric signals generated by photosensors are not uniform after being amplified by the amplifier transistors, which may cause fixed image noises and defective pixels and lines, and the imaging quality of images according to amplified signal lines is poor.

In view of this, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, multiple amplifier transistors are disposed in a drive backplane, the active layers in the amplifier transistors are made of amorphous silicon or oxide semiconductors to ensure that the carrier mobility in the amplifier transistors in the drive backplane is uniform, so that the uniformity of gains of the amplifier transistors in the drive backplane is improved, and image noises and even defective pixel and lines caused by non-uniform intensities of electric signals amplified by the amplifier transistors are avoided, thus improving the imaging quality of images generated according to amplified signal lines.

Refer to FIG. 1 which illustrates a sectional view of a read transistor and an amplifier transistor in a first drive backplane according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, FIG. 2 which illustrates a sectional view of a reset transistor and an amplifier transistor in the first drive backplane according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, FIG. 3 which illustrates a sectional view of a read transistor and an amplifier transistor in a second drive backplane according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, FIG. 4 which illustrates a sectional view of a reset transistor and an amplifier transistor in the second drive backplane according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, FIG. 5 which illustrates a sectional view of a read transistor and an amplifier transistor in a third drive backplane according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, and FIG. 6 illustrates a sectional view of a reset transistor and an amplifier transistor in the third drive backplane according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.

This embodiment of the present disclosure provides a drive backplane, comprising: a base plate 10 and multiple drive modules disposed on the base plate 10, wherein each drive module comprises a reset transistor 20, a read transistor 30, an amplifier transistor 40 and a memory capacitor 50.

In an actual product, the base plate 10 may be a glass base plate, multiple drive modules distributed in an array are disposed on the base plate 10, and each drive module comprises the reset transistor 20, the read transistor 30, the amplifier transistor 40 and the memory capacitor 50.

In an actual drive process, the reset transistor 20 is controlled to be turned on at first, and then the memory capacitor 50 is reset by the reset transistor 20 to release electric charges stored in the memory capacitor 50; after the photosensor converts an optical signal into an electric signal, the memory capacitor 50 stores the electric signal generated by the photosensor and controls a grid voltage of the amplifier transistor 40 based on the electric signal generated by the photosensor, the amplifier transistor 40 is controlled to work in a saturation region based on the grid voltage of the amplifier transistor 40 and a Vdd voltage provided by a source of the amplifier transistor, and then, the electric signal stored in the memory capacitor 50 is amplified by the amplifier transistor 40; and finally, the read transistor 30 is controlled to be turned on to read the electric signal amplified by the amplifier transistor 40.

Wherein, active layers in the reset transistor 20 and the read transistor 30 are both made of polysilicon, and an active layer in the amplifier transistor 40 is made of amorphous silicon or an oxide semiconductor.

The amplifier transistors 40 are additionally disposed in the drive backplane, and noises are equivalently lowered by means of signal gains of the amplifier transistors 40, and thus, a high signal to noise ratio is provided under low dose conditions; in addition, the active layers in the amplifier transistors 40 are made of amorphous silicon or oxide semiconductors and are not crystallized by laser annealing, so that the carrier mobility of the amplifier transistors 40 is uniform, the uniformity of the gains of the amplifier transistors 40 is improved, and image noises and even defective pixels and lines caused by non-uniform intensities of electric signals amplified by the amplifier transistors 40 are avoided, thus improving the imaging quality of images generated according to amplified signal lines.

As shown in FIG. 2 , FIG. 4 and FIG. 6 , the reset transistor 20 comprises a first active layer 21, a first grid insulating layer 22, a first gate 23, an interlayer dielectric layer 24 and a first source-drain electrode that are sequentially disposed on one side of the base plate 10; the first source-drain electrode comprises a first source 251 and a first drain 252 that are disposed on the same layer; wherein, the first source 251 in the first source-drain electrode is connected to the first active layer 21 by means of a first via hole penetrating through the interlayer dielectric layer 24, and the first drain 252 in the first source-drain electrode is connected to the first active layer 21 by means of a second via hole penetrating through the interlayer dielectric layer 24.

The first active layer 21, namely an active layer of the reset transistor 20, is made of polysilicon, and includes a first undoped region and a first doped regions located on two sides of the first undoped region, wherein the first active layer 21 located at a junction of the first active layer 21 and the first source 251 is the first active layer 21 located at the first doped region, and the first active layer 21 located at a junction of the first active layer 21 and the first drain 252 is also the first active layer 21 located at the first doped region. The first active layer 21 in contact with the first source 251 and the first drain 252 is doped, so that ohmic contact between the first active layer 21 and the first source 251 and ohmic contact between the first active layer 21 and the first drain 252 are increased.

As shown in FIG. 1 , FIG. 3 and FIG. 5 , the read transistor 30 comprises a second active layer 31, the first grid insulating layer 22, a second gate 33, the interlayer dielectric layer 24 and a second source-drain electrode that are sequentially disposed on one side of the base plate 10; the second source-drain electrode comprises a second source 351 and a second drain 352 that are disposed on the same layer; the second source 351 in the second source-drain electrode is connected to the second active layer 31 by means of a third via hole penetrating through the interlayer dielectric layer 24, and the second drain 352 in the second source-drain electrode is connected to the second active layer 31 by means of a fourth via hole penetrating through the interlayer dielectric layer 24; wherein, the first active layer 21 and the second active layer 31 are disposed on the same layer, the first gate 23 and the second gate 33 are disposed on the same layer, and the first source-drain electrode and the second source-drain electrode are disposed on the same layer.

The second active layer 31, namely an active layer of the read transistor 30, is made of polysilicon, and comprises a second undoped region and a second doped regions located on two sides of the second undoped region, wherein the second active layer 31 located at a junction of the second active layer 31 and the second source 351 is the second active layer 31 located at the second doped region, and the second active layer 31 located at a junction of the second active layer 31 and the second drain 352 is also the second active layer 31 located at the second doped region. The second active layer 31 in contact with the second source 351 and the second drain 352 is doped, so that ohmic contact between the second active layer 31 and the second source 351 and ohmic contact between the second active layer 31 and the second drain 352 are increased.

It should be noted that the reset transistor 20 and the read transistor 30 may be N-type transistors or P-type transistors. When the reset transistor 20 is a P-type transistor, the first doped regions of the first active layer 21 may be doped with boron ions; or, when the reset transistor 20 is an N-type transistor, the first doped regions of the first active layer 21 may be doped with phosphorus ions. Correspondingly, when the read transistor 30 is a P-type transistor, the second doped regions of the second active layer 31 may be doped with boron ions; or, when the read transistor 30 is an N-type transistor, the second doped regions of the second active layer 31 may be doped with phosphorus ions.

In one optional implementation of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , the drive backplane further comprises a buffer layer 72 and a second grid insulating layer 71 that are disposed between the base plate 10 and the first active layer 21, and the buffer layer 72 is disposed on a side, away from the base plate 10, of the second grid insulating layer 71; the amplifier transistor 40 comprises a third gate 41, a second grid insulating layer 71, a third active layer 42 and a third source-drain electrode that are sequentially disposed on the base plate 10; the third source-drain electrode comprises a third source 431 and a third drain 432 that are disposed on the same layer; the second source 351 in the second source-drain electrode is connected to the third drain 432 in the third source-drain electrode by means of a fifth via hole penetrating through the interlayer dielectric layer 24; wherein, an orthographic projection of the third active layer 42 on the base plate 10 does not overlap with an orthographic projection of the buffer layer 72 on the base plate 10.

Specifically, the third gate 41 in the amplifier transistor 40 is disposed on the base plate 10, the second grid insulating layer 71 covers the third gate 41 and the base plate 10, the buffer layer 72 is disposed on the second grid insulating layer 71, and the first active layer 21 and the second active layer 31 are both disposed on the buffer layer 72, that is, the first active layer 21 and the second active layer 31 are both disposed on a side, away from the base plate 10, of the buffer layer 72; the first grid insulating layer 22 is disposed on the first active layer 21 and the second active layer 31, and the first gate 23 and the second gate 33 are disposed on the first grid insulating layer 22; the third active layer 42 is disposed on the second grid insulating layer 71, and the third source-drain electrode is also disposed on the second grid insulating layer 71 and partially covers the third active layer 42; the interlayer dielectric layer 24 covers the buffer layer 72, the first active layer 21, the second active layer 31, the first grid insulating layer 22, the first gate 23, the second gate 33, the third source-drain electrode, the third active layer 42 and the second grid insulating layer 71; and first source-drain electrode and the second source-drain electrode are disposed on the interlayer dielectric layer 24.

It's worth noting that the orthographic projection of the third active layer 42 on the base plate 10 does not overlap with the orthographic projection of the buffer layer 72 on the base plate 10, that is, the buffer layer 72 is only located in an area where the reset transistor 20 and the read transistor 30 are located, and the material, in an area where the amplifier transistor 40 is located, of the amplifier transistor 40 is etched, so the amplifier transistor 40 only comprises the third gate 41, the second grid insulating layer 71, the third active layer 42 and the third source-drain electrode that are stacked together.

The buffer layer 72 is a laminated structure comprising silicon nitride and silicon oxide, and has an insulation effect. In the actual manufacturing process, film layers corresponding to the first active layer 21 of the reset transistor 20, the second active layer 31 of the read transistor 30 and the third active layer 42 of the amplifier transistor 40 are deposited synchronously, that is, after the buffer layer 72 is formed by a patterning process, an amorphous silicon film is deposited in the area where the reset transistor 20, the read transistor 30 and the amplifier transistor 40 are located; the amorphous silicon film is patterned to form a pattern corresponding to the first active layer 21, the second active layer 31 and the third active layer 42; then, the whole drive backplane comprising the patterned amorphous silicon film is processed by excimer laser annealing; the buffer layer 72 is disposed in the area where the reset transistor 20 and the read transistor 30 are located, so that amorphous silicon in this area is maintained at a high temperature and is crystallized to be converted into polysilicon; however, the area where the amplifier transistor 40 is located is not provided with the buffer layer 72, so amorphous silicon at the position of the amplifier transistor 40 cannot be maintained in a high temperature for a long time and will not be crystallized, and the amorphous silicon at this position is still amorphous silicon.

By disposing the buffer layer 72 in the area where the reset transistor 20 and the read transistor 30 are located, the process steps are simplified, the first active layer 21 and the second active layer 31 may be made of polysilicon, and the third active layer 42 may be made of amorphous silicon. It should be noted that, in this case, the third active layer 42 refers to a first undoped amorphous silicon layer 421 in the third active layer 42.

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , the third active layer 42 is made of amorphous silicon, and comprises the first undoped amorphous silicon layer 421 disposed on the second grid insulating layer 71, and a first doped amorphous silicon layer 422 disposed on the first undoped amorphous silicon layer 421.

Specifically, the first doped amorphous silicon layer 422 is located on part of the first undoped amorphous silicon layer 421, and the first doped amorphous silicon layer 422 in a channel region of the first undoped amorphous silicon layer 321 is etched, and the third source-drain electrode actually covers the first doped amorphous silicon layer 422 in the third active layer 42.

Wherein, the first undoped amorphous silicon layer 421 is made of amorphous silicon, and is not doped with any ions; and the first doped amorphous silicon layer 422 is made of amorphous silicon, and is doped with N-type ions, such as phosphorus ions.

The third active layer 42 is an active layer of the amplifier transistor 40. When the third active layer 42 in the amplifier transistor 40 is made of amorphous silicon, the first undoped amorphous silicon layer 421 in the third active layer 42 is not crystallized during the laser annealing process of the first active layer 21 and the second active layer 31, and the laser annealing process is not involved either in the subsequent formation process of the first doped amorphous silicon layer 422, so the degree of crystallization of the third active layer 42 in the amplifier transistor 40 is not involved, which makes the carrier mobility of the amplifier transistors 40 uniform, thus improving the uniformity of the gains of the amplifier transistors 40 in the drive backplane.

The third active layer 42 is made of an oxide semiconductor, and the oxide semiconductor may specifically be Indium Gallium Zinc Oxide (IGZO), Indium Tin Gallium Oxide (ITGO), or other materials. When the third active layer 42 in the amplifier transistor 40 is made of the oxide semiconductor, the laser annealing process for crystallization is not needed, so the degree of crystallization of the third active layer 42 in the amplifier transistor 40 is not involved, which makes the carrier mobility of the amplifier transistors 40 uniform, thus improving the uniformity of the gains of the amplifier transistors 40 in the drive backplane.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , the drive backplane further comprises a light shielding layer 73 disposed on the base plate 10 and located on the same layer as the third gate 41, and the second grid insulating layer 71 covers the light shielding layer 73.

The light shielding layer 73 is disposed on the base plate 10 and is located in channel regions of the reset transistor 20 and the read transistor 30 to shield the channel regions of the reset transistor 20 and the read transistor 30 against light, so that external ambient light will not be irradiated into the channel regions of the reset transistor 20 and the read transistor 30 through the base plate 10, thus protecting the performance of the reset transistor 20 and the read transistor 30 forming being affected.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , the drive backplane further comprises a first passivation layer 74 covering the interlayer dielectric layer 24, the first source-drain electrode and the second source-drain electrode, and a first flat layer 75 disposed on the first passivation layer 74. Wherein, the first passivation layer 74 may be made of silicon nitride and/or silicon oxide, and the first flat layer 78 is made of resin.

The drive backplane further comprises a seventh via hole 751 penetrating through the first flat layer 75, the first passivation layer 74, the interlayer dielectric layer 24 and the second grid insulating layer 71, and an eighth via hole 752 penetrating through the first flat layer 75 and the first passivation layer 74, wherein the third gate 41 of the amplifier transistor 40 is connected to a first photosensitive electrode (lower electrode) of the photosensor by means of the seventh via hole 751, and the first source 251 in the first source-drain electrode of the reset transistor 20 is connected to the first photosensitive electrode (lower electrode) of the photosensor by means of the eighth via hole 752, so that the third gate 41 of the amplifier transistor 40 is connected to the first source 251 in the first source-drain electrode of the reset transistor 20 by means of the first photosensitive electrode.

In another optional implementation of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 3 to FIG. 6 , the drive backplane further comprises a second passivation layer 76 covering the interlayer dielectric layer 24, the first source-drain electrode and the second source-drain electrode; the amplifier transistor 40 comprises a fourth gate 44, the second passivation layer 76, a fourth active layer 45 and a fourth source-drain electrode that are sequentially disposed on the interlayer dielectric layer 24; the fourth source-drain electrode comprises a fourth source 461 and a fourth drain 462 that are disposed on the same layer; wherein, the fourth gate 44 is disposed on the same layer as the first source-drain electrode and the second source-drain electrode and is connected to the first source 251 in the first source-drain electrode; and the fourth drain 462 in the fourth source-drain electrode is connected to the second source 351 in the second source-drain electrode by means of a sixth via hole penetrating through the second passivation layer 76.

Specifically, the first active layer 21 and the second active layer 31 are directly disposed on the base plate 10, the first grid insulating layer 22 is disposed on the first active layer 21 and the second active layer 31, and the first gate 23 and the second gate 33 are disposed on the first grid insulating layer 22; the interlayer dielectric layer 24 covers the first active layer 21, the second active layer 31, the first grid insulating layer 22, the first gate 23, the second gate 33 and the base plate 10, and the first source-drain electrode, the second source-drain electrode and the fourth gate 44 are all disposed on the interlayer dielectric layer 24; the second passivation layer 76 covers the interlayer dielectric layer 24, the first source-drain electrode, the second source-drain electrode and the fourth gate 44, and the fourth active layer 45 is disposed on the second passivation layer 76, the fourth source-drain electrode is also disposed on the second passivation layer 76 and partially covers the fourth active layer 45.

As shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 , the fourth active layer 45 is made of amorphous silicon, and comprises a second undoped amorphous silicon layer 451 disposed on the second passivation layer 76, and a second doped amorphous silicon layer 452 disposed on the second undoped amorphous silicon layer 451.

Specifically, the second doped amorphous silicon layer 452 is located on part of the second undoped amorphous silicon layer 451, and the second doped amorphous silicon layer 452 in a channel region of the second undoped amorphous silicon layer 451 is etched, so the fourth source-drain electrode actually covers the second doped amorphous silicon layer 452 in the fourth active layer 45.

In addition, the fourth gate 44, the first polar plate 51, and the first source 251 in the first source-drain electrode are connected.

Next, a second passivation layer 76 is formed, wherein the second passivation layer 76 covers the interlayer dielectric layer 24, the first source-drain electrode, the second source-drain electrode, the fourth gate 44 and the first polar plate 51.

After the second passivation layer 76 is formed, a fourth active layer 45 is formed on the second passivation layer 76 by a patterning process, wherein the fourth active layer 45 is made of amorphous silicon or an oxide semiconductor. When the fourth active layer 45 is made of amorphous silicon, an amorphous silicon layer is formed by a one-step patterning process, and then ions are implanted into the amorphous silicon layer; or, a second undoped amorphous silicon layer 451 and a second doped amorphous silicon 452 are formed by two patterning processes, respectively.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, multiple amplifier transistors are disposed in the drive backplane and the active layers in the amplifier transistors are made of amorphous silicon or oxide semiconductors, so that the carrier mobility of the amplifier transistors in the drive backplane is uniform, which improves the uniformity of gains of the amplifier transistors in the drive backplane and avoiding image noises and even defective pixels and lines caused by non-uniform intensities of electric signals amplified by the amplifier transistors, thus improving the imaging quality of images generated according to amplified signal lines.

Refer to FIG. 9 which illustrates a sectional view of a detection substrate corresponding to the drive backplane shown in FIG. 1 , FIG. 10 which illustrates a sectional view of a detection substrate corresponding to the drive backplane shown in FIG. 2 , FIG. 11 which illustrates a sectional view of a detection substrate corresponding to the drive backplane shown in FIG. 3 , and FIG. 12 which illustrates a sectional view of a detection substrate corresponding to the drive backplane shown in FIG. 4 .

This embodiment of the present disclosure provides a detection substrate comprising a photosensor 60 and the drive backplane, wherein the photosensor 60 is connected to the drive backplane. Specifically, the photosensor 60 is connected to a reset transistor 20, an amplifier transistor 40 and a memory capacitor 50 in the drive backplane.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the photosensor 60 comprises a first photosensitive electrode 61, a second photosensitive electrode 63, and a photosensitive layer 62 disposed between the first photosensitive electrode 61 and the second photosensitive electrode 63.

As shown in FIG. 9 and FIG. 10 , the first photosensitive electrode 61 is connected to a third gate 41 by means of a seventh via hole 751 penetrating through a first flat layer 75, a first passivation layer 74, an interlayer dielectric layer 24 and a second grid insulating layer 71, and is connected to a first source 251 in a first source-drain electrode by means of an eighth via hole 752 penetrating through the first flat layer 75 and the first passivation layer 74. In this case, the first photosensitive 61 is disposed on a side, away from the base plate 10, of the first flat layer 75.

As shown in FIG. 11 and FIG. 12 , the first photosensitive electrode 61 is connected to a fourth gate 44 through a ninth via hole 771 penetrating through a second flat layer 77 and a second passivation layer 76. In this case, the first photosensitive electrode 61 is disposed on a side, away from the base plate 10, of the second flat layer 77.

Wherein, the first photosensitive electrode 61 is used as a lower electrode of the photosensor 60, and the second photosensitive electrode 63 is used as an upper electrode of the photosensor 60. To ensure that rays can normally pass through the second photosensitive electrode 63 to be irradiated onto a photosensitive layer 62, the second photosensitive electrode 63 needs to be made of a transparent electrically conductive material, that is, the material of the second photosensitive electrode 63 is a transparent electrically conductive material such as Indium Tin Oxides (ITO).

In an optional implementation of the present disclosure, the photosensitive layer 62 is made of a direct conversion material that is able to directly convert X-rays, γ-rays or other rays into electric signals, such as an organic material, perovskite, mercury iodide, lead iodide, lead oxide, bismuth iodide or Cd1-xZnxTe. In this case, a third passivation layer 81 is disposed on a side, away from the photosensitive layer 62, of the second photosensitive electrode 63.

In another optional implementation of the present disclosure, the detection substrate further comprises a third passivation layer 81 and a scintillant layer 82 that are disposed on a side, away from the photosensitive layer 62, of the second photosensitive layer 63; and the photosensitive layer 63 comprises a first doped layer 621, an intrinsic layer 622 and a second doped layer 623 that are sequentially disposed on a side, away from the drive backplane, of the first photosensitive electrode 61.

In this case, the photosensitive layer 62 is actually a photodiode that is unable to directly convert X-rays, γ-rays or other rays into electric signals and is only able to convert visible light into electric signals, so the scintillant layer 82 is additionally arranged to convert X-rays, γ-rays or other rays into visible light, which is then irradiated onto the photosensitive layer by the third passivation layer 81 and the second photosensitive electrode 63, so that the visible light is converted by the photosensitive layer 62 into an electric signal.

Wherein, the first doped layer 621 may be a P-type layer, the intrinsic layer 622 may be an I-type layer, and the second doped layer 623 may be an N-type layer; or, the first doped layer 621 may be an N-type layer, the intrinsic layer 622 may be an I-type layer, and the second doped layer 623 may be an I-type layer. In addition, the I-type layer is made of perovskite, and the P-type layer and the N-type layer are made of organic or inorganic materials; or, the P-type layer, the I-type layer and the N-type layer are all made of organic materials.

It should be noted that in the structure shown in FIG. 9 and FIG. 10 , the photosensitive layer 62 is made of a direct conversion material, that is, the photosensitive layer 62 is a direct conversion type photosensitive layer 62; in the structure shown in FIG. 11 and FIG. 12 , the photosensitive layer 62 is made of a photodiode, that is, the photosensitive layer 62 is an indirect conversion type photosensitive layer 62. These two photosensitive layers 62 may be disposed on the drive backplane in shown in any one of FIG. 1 to FIG. 6 , and the present disclosure is not limited to the configuration that the direct conversion type photosensitive layer 62 is disposed on the drive backplane shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 and the configuration that the indirect conversion type photosensitive layer 62 is disposed on the drive backplane shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 .

As shown in FIG. 9 to FIG. 12 , an orthographic projection of the photosensor 60 on the base plate covers orthographic projections of the reset transistor 20, the read transistor 30, the amplifier transistor 40 and the memory capacitor 50 on the base plate 10. That is, the photosensor 60 is disposed on the whole drive backplane, and the proportion of the area of the photosensor 60 to the area of the whole detection substrate basically reaches 100%, so that the fill factor of the detection substrate is increased, the reset transistor 20, the read transistor 30, the amplifier transistor 40 and the memory capacitor 50 in the drive backplane are prevented from occupying too many photosensitive area, and the photoelectric conversion efficiency is improved.

Or, the orthographic projection of the photosensor 60 on the base plate 10 does not overlap with the orthographic projections of the reset transistor 20, the read transistor 30, the amplifier transistor 40 and the memory capacitor 50 on the base plate 10.

In this case, the area of the detection substrate is equal to the sum of the area of the reset transistor 20, the area of the read transistor 30, the area of the amplifier transistor 40, the area of the memory capacitor 50, and the area of the photosensor 60, and the area of the photosensor 60 accounts for 60%-70% of the area of the detection substrate.

One embodiment of the present disclosure further provides a detection device comprising the detection substrate. The detection device may be a flat panel detector (FPD).

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, multiple amplifier transistors are disposed in the drive backplane and the active layers in the amplifier transistors are made of amorphous silicon or oxide semiconductors, so that the carrier mobility of the amplifier transistors in the drive backplane is uniform, which improves the uniformity of the gains of the amplifier transistors in the drive backplane and avoiding image noises and even defective pixels and lines caused by non-uniform intensities of electric signals amplified by the amplifier transistors, thus improving the imaging quality of images generated according to amplified signal lines.
